“The whole educational and professional
training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are
too independent, and who think for themselves, and who don't know how to be
submissive, and so on -- because they're dysfunctional to the
institutions.”
“Education
is a system of imposed ignorance.”
“Everyone’s worried about stopping
terrorism. Well, there’s really an easy way: Stop participating in it.”
“The more you can increase fear of drugs,
crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all of the
people.”
“See, people with power understand exactly
one thing: violence.”
“It is important to bear in mind that
political campaigns are designed by the same people who sell toothpaste and
cars.”
“Neoliberal democracy. Instead of citizens,
it produces consumers. Instead of communities, it produces shopping malls. The
net result is an atomized society of disengaged individuals who feel
demoralized and socially powerless.
In sum, neoliberalism is the immediate and foremost enemy of genuine
participatory democracy, not just in the United States but across the planet,
and will be for the foreseeable future.”
“It is the responsibility of intellectuals
to speak the truth and expose lies.”
― Noam Chomsky
